CORE COURSE
ASSIGNMENT
JULY 2022 - JANUARY 2023
Dear Learner,
As we have informed you in the Programme Guide, evaluation at IGNOU consists of two
parts: i) continuous evaluation through assignments, and ii) term-end examination. In the
final result, assignments of a Course will carry 30% weightage while 70% weightage is
given for term-end examination (total 100 marks).
BPCC113 is a 4 + 2 credits course and has two assignments and one tutorial.
Assignment I has Descriptive Category Questions (DCQs). These are meant for writing
essay type answers, with an introduction and a conclusion. These are intended to test your
ability to describe understanding/knowledge about the topic in a systematic, to-the-point,
and coherent manner.
Assignment II has Middle Category Questions (MCQs). These questions require you to
first analyse the topic in terms of arguments and explanations and then write the answers
in a concise manner. They are meant to test your ability to clearly understand concepts and
processes.
Tutorial: The present course will include tutorial, that is compulsory. It will be in form of
activities and evaluated by your academic counsellor. You should carefully read the course
material and apply the information while answering the tutorial. These activities are meant
to develop your ability to relate your knowledge to day-to day life experiences. The tutori-
al will be made available to you along with the assignments and they have to be submitted
at your study centre.
Before you attempt the assignments, please read the instructions carefully provided in the
Programme Guide. It is important that you write the answers to all the TMA questions in
your own words. Your answers should be according to the word-limit set for a particular
section. Remember, writing answers to assignment questions will improve your writing
skill and sharpen your understanding of the concepts. It will also help you prepare for the
term-end examination.
